All except for Marie , the eldest daughter, confined to bed for long months with an illness that overshadows her childhood.
When her health finally improves and Marie is back in the lively heart of her family, she finds herself a step behind her enterprising siblings when it comes to holding down a job - and finding a husband. Will Marie's spirit and tenacity be enough to overcome her troubles and lead the life she's always wanted?
